First Line: Now blow the daffodils on slender stalks
Last Line: Sounds in that song the thrush sends through the rain.
Subject(s): Weather


NOW blow the daffodils on slender stalks,
Small, keen, quick flames that leap up in the mould,
And run along the dripping garden-walks:
Swallows come whirring back to chimneys old.
Blown by the Wind, the pear-tree's flakes of snow
Lie heaped in the thick grasses of the lane;
And all the sweetness of the Long Ago
Sounds in that song the thrush sends through the rain.
